Tube holders are easily connected to the fuel tank by screws. Using screws is much more secure
than using glue to attach the holders to the fuel tank.
The larger insert decreases the
fuel tank volume by 2cc, and is
recommended for use when the
fuel filter is used.
The smaller insert decreases the
fuel tank volume by 1cc.
1CC FUEL TANK INSERT
2CC FUEL TANK INSERT
The fuel tank has the larger fuel volume and includes OPTIONAL tank inserts for decreasing
the volume of the tank. Using the inserts allows you to adjust the volume of fuel inside the
tank; this works in conjunction with variables such as fuel filter capacity and/or length of
fuel line to ensure you have the legal fuel volume limit for racing.

These bearings must still
be regularly serviced and
replaced when worn out.
It is very important that your XT8 has properly-adjusted
gear mesh. Adjust the gear mesh so there is adequate (or
slightly larger) space between the spur gear and clutchbell
teeth. Adjust the gear mesh by sliding the engine mounts in
the slots of the chassis. You should be able to rock one gear
back and forth slightly while holding the other one firmly.
Be sure to check the gear mesh all the way around the spur
gear. Tighten the screws once the engine alignment and
gear mesh are correct, and then re-check the gear mesh to
ensure the engine mounts did not move.
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT
Adjust engine position to
achieve proper gear mesh.
